region and changing as the programme builds up

The first competition: the outcomes…

25 projects • based in a diversity of settings and care groups• concerned with clinical and non-clinical topics • using a diversity of methods and research techniques• building partnerships between the NHS, academia and

patient groups

not the usual suspects, not the established priorities

Preparing a proposal ... early stages

• Build the right team for the task

• Use the PPI grid not just at the end but at an early stage as a design aid

• Partnerships are possible and often preferable

Preparing a Proposal ... developing the application

• The usual rules for sound research apply

• Address the scope criteria explicitly

• Use critical readers not only inside but outside the specialist area

Preparing a Proposal … before you submit

• Scan all guidance and web resources again (include FAQs, Director’s Message &c.)

• Familiarise yourself with the submission rules

• If in doubt … contact CCF
